Tschirch Heads for the Cage

Big pairs seem to be holding today with a bit more frequency than we've seen on previous days of the Main Event. Tim Taylor's pocket queens prevailed over Mark Tschirch's pocket sixes on a board of {4-Hearts} {A-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {7-Spades} {K-Spades} after all the money went in preflop. That hand sent Tschirch to the rail and bumped Taylor up to the 500,000 mark.
